"My hands got chill blains..."

The Road To Beijing Laura Balwin has posted her February diary:

"My word, it was freezing! My hands got chill blains then went numb. We had a quick blast around Portland Harbor before my toe strap elastic came undone during a tacking drill sending me flying out of the boat and plopping me in the icy water. That was it, I had to head home it wasn?t just my feet that were throbbing now but my whole body! "

Meanwhile, UK Athletics have updated Abi Oyepitan's IAAF ranking on her biography page. As of the 7th March she's gone from 18th to 17th in the rankings. [about]
